- So far we’ve been to 10 countries. For number eleven, let’s go somewhere exotic. How about…China? There is lots to eat in Shanghai. The city has more than a 100.000 restaurants.
Of those with 3 Michelin stars, there are only 2. and today we will try one of them. Let’s go to Taian Table. It’s the creation of Stefan Stiller.

My name is Alexander. I’m the co-owner of a ONE Michelin star restaurant, and I’m on a mission - to find inspiration in gastronomy. I love fine dining, good wine and sharing what I know with other people.

This channel is the epitome of class bathed in genuine pleasure sprinkled with humility and respect for the craft and its artists. Hats off and thank you very much for so eloquently sharing your culinary experiences.
Genuinely can’t believe he doesn’t have a million + followers. It’s only a matter of time before it takes off
@@DC-fo9rh Agreed. It takes even longer, at this point, for even top shelf channels to ascend, especially when the content is intellectually subtle and this refined. it will get there. He's fighting for his first star. 😁
@@DC-fo9rh believe it or not, he already has been taking off! it feels like just yesterday I was watching him with 1.4k subscribers. the rise has been quick. I just checked a site that reports on youtube stats and over the past 365 days he's gone from 15k to 159k subs (:
So well said
wrrr
Alexander is the only youtube/internet personality who I can hear talk about 1000s of dollars worth of bills, and not get the littlest sense of showing off from him.
The most detailed video by far in terms of the ingredients used and the cooking methods employed, which made it the most interesting video! That really helped me to imagine the flavours and textures of each dish. Looking forward to the next review!
He really really enjoyed himself here. Fantastic experience.
I think this is by far the most generous tasting menu from any restaurant featured on this channel. Sometimes people say fine dining can leave you hungry - this is clearly not the case here!
Very much so.
china then
wrr
I love how the head chef just walks around with a glass of wine in the large open kitchen. It shows that he is really at home and having a great time and you are invited to the party. It much more fun than many super formal European restaurants.
Taian has some of the best presentation I have seen on this channel, incredible dishes.
Men this is crazy... I would fly over to China just for this experience.. The dishes looks great, like art. Vibe is great, and ive never seen a chef drinking like this. The guy is a legend and I would love to cheer a glass champagne with him! Thanks for putting this video online!
Probably not the best of ideas as a westerner nowadays 😂
@@jdan6122 This is an impressive amount of mental gymnastics considering the dude literally just filmed and dined in China. Consider applying to a circus job lol. Western propaganda has done a number on your brain. If you don't plan to commit a crime or do some casual espionage then China is probably safer than the majority of Western countries.
@@jdan6122Actually, I think the government is generally a lot nicer to westerners than to their own people, so it shouldnt be much of a concern
@@jdan6122the staff in the restaurant seems like mostly westerners, unless someone is known activist, average joe should be fine
Or go to Europe? It was a French centric restaurant after all
Chef changes the menu every six weeks? That is so much work. Beyond impressed.
wrrr
Cant wait for you to come to the netherlands and try one of our 3 star restaurants! We have 2, De Librije and Inter Scaldes
Agreed!
Inter Scaldes has closed unfortunately.
@@ilijapetkovski Dont they reopen in november?
@@michielreuver not the 3 star Michelin unfortunately. But new restaurant with new chef who needs to win his stars.
He had 2 stars where he came from
I love cooking and culinary stuff and I haven't come across a lot of high-end dining content. I always thought that it would be a bit pretentious. But Alexander is so humble and presents all of these restaurants with such groundedness, honesty, and humility that I can really see and appreciate the art and effort put into all of this food. His presentation and production quality is outstanding as well. Thank you for making these videos!
Wow. Didn't expect the China trip. I lived in Shanghai for two years and regret never going to places like Tai'an, didn't even know they got the third star, wow (especially Ultraviolet, I wanna go there so bad!). Thanks for the video the dishes looked like works of art!
haha, same ... i was there more than 3 years, knew about these places, but never visited
Lived and worked in China for 16 years and been to Taian once it was still to this date my most memorable dining experience
Not gonna lie, I almost break out crying watching your videos by pure awe.
Classic Alexander, hears it's someone in the world's birthday so pops a bottle of Krug 😉 love it.
Looks like a really special place, brilliant service and lots of interesting ideas for dishes.
I like it that you are able to interact with the chef himself. That really something special, you get to know a little of the person who created the meal. Great job.
Wow, it looks really great. Nice job with your reviews! But why go to China and no Chinese food?
Outstanding. Well Done Stefan!
When I go to Shanghai again the TaianTable will be on my list ! I love the way Chef Stiller and his team create mouth-watering fusion cuisine from different geographical locations, and their wine selection is straight up my avenue. I'm German too, and I love German wines and am convinced of their world-class quality - as always you just have to find the right vineyards and years. Hats off to Chef Stiller for creating such amazing food, and to Alexander for sharing his experience !
The background music overpowers your narrative. No one is here for the music. We are here for you! Thank you... 😊
I really like this episode for its detailed description coupled with understated passion and respectful appreciation for the craft. Thank you Alexander.
This channel should have a couple mil subs, the quality is insane and the content is incredibly unique and alexander himself is a phenomenal host. Amazing content keep it up!
amazing work, keep it up!
I think you did both innovation and perfection with this channel - bravo!
Love your channel. Thank you for sharing!
Yet another excellent video!
Great clip! I really enjoy your enthusiasm 👍
Seeing your channel go from virtually 0 subscribers to 155k has been a treat! Love how granular the content gets, there is no other on RUclips doing it this way! Adding this to my list of places to go lol 🤝🏾
Good work!Keep it up Alexander!❤
Love your video. So many good place to eat.
Always a great video from Alexander…
Not to mention the budget of this one specific content. Alexander is really putting work and his money just to share this wonderful experience..
That is some of the best looking food I have ever seen on the channel, I hope it tasted just as good 👍
Please visit *De Librije in Zwolle 🙏🏻
Awesome as always. My bucketlist is growing and growing...
Another amazing vid, keep up the great work. You gotta come to Ireland soon, some great restaurants here!

Happy to see Stefan on this channel!
I love how the dishes have those little bubbles, looking like little gems - thank you for your insight in the culinary world!
100% the best food related channel on you tube, well done and keep them coming.
My new favorite channel...thank you!
This is by far your best video yet. Love the generosity you share, and thanks for giving us a window into these experiences.
Stunning video all around, really enjoyed it was more in-depth!
Love your videoes! Really well put together, high-end withouth being pretencious in any way
Well priced with great food. Been there a few time. The chef is polite. Recommended.
Thank you so much for your continuous work brother...i use mobile data so i'm usually late for your videos. Feels good to catch up
A great restaurant, properly represented here. You've really captured what makes this place so great. Thanks!
Wow. It looks like you had a wonderful experience. Excellent video also.
Simply superb review, no doubt worth the trip. Really enjoy the detail you go into. Best wishes.
Amazing video as usual! Starting my Michelin world tour next year :D
Thanks to your channel I''ve learned the subtleties that differentiate a one michelin star restaurant to three. Perfection isn't just all seriousness but putting a wonderful personal connection to the experience. More power! Yours is easily one of the BEST lifestyle channels on YT
Absolutely stunning dishes!
This is both great content and presentation.
This is honestly one of the best channels on YT; every video is so well made and feels v personal as well. Keep them coming we can't wait to see more!
I've watched most, if not all of your episodes, but this is my favorite one!
I really liked how you focused on the food, its ingredients and its taste, instead of the wines in the selection, great episode, keep it up
Excellent content.Hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪
After watching every single episode of your amazing Journey, this one is my absolute favorite.
Thank you so much for sharing this awesome experience with us, it is always a pleasure to be a part of it!
This deserves way more subs :D
I lived in China for three years. Shenzhen. Which is close to Hong Kong. Shanghai is great. Been there a few times. My ex Chinese girlfriend lives there. My favorite city on the mainland. They are well known for their seafood. I liked this restaurant because it was different. Like you said. Loved how you sat not at a table but at the counter area. That way you can easily watch them make everything. The owner was great. Loved how personable he was to you. Smiling. Laughing. Etc. Easy going. Not stiff. Their food looked good. But their desserts were amazing. Loved what they gave you plus their presentation. Unique. I also loved the lighting inside the restaurant. That’s very important to me. How is it lit. To set that mood. Thanks again.
Glad you added this in the community tab too.
YT has stopped showing you videos on my feed.
just subbed, after following for a few months. quality vid after another quality vid.
Beautiful video as always. I'd love you if could make video of the cities and the places you visit, maybe showing the local street food and cuisine and the local food traditions. All of that seen by your professional and elegant eyes. It would be a wonderful tour around the world. COME TO ITALY!!! LOVE YOU
One of your best videos yet!
Really nice episode. I am from Celle and didn't know that my small town is international haha
Never thought I'd see my German hometown featured on this channel. Interestingly his German wiki page says that chef Stiller was born in Hildesheim, not in Celle. Not sure if that's a mistake or not. When I'm in Shanghai I'll have to pay this restaurant a visit!
a video without krug is not a alexander video at this point! amazing
well said.
Happy you went to Shanghai. Shanghai been my home since 10years back and it never get old. Always something new do do or eat.
This is just.....Amazing
nothing more exciting than alexander upload🎉🎉
very nice work as always. i would love it if you could test andreas caminada in switzerland
I always like your presentation, elegant n so clearly so I can imagine the taste of foods. The cinematography also the next level. Best Regards from Jakarta, Indonesia.
food that attracted me most was the very last one, the candies in the wood box. interesting, candies made from vegetables
Outstanding as always. Before I found your channel, my top reason going to Hungary was to listen to the Ivan Fischer Budapest Festival Orchestra. Now I have 2 top reasons with the second being dining in your restaurant :)
That looked incredible
Looks great 🎉
Great video! For a future one I would recommend "De Nieuwe Zaak" in Nijmegen (Netherlands). A 2 Michelin star vegan restaurant. They are considered the best vegetarian restaurant in the world by many.
The descriptions of the food are really great. Compared to the first episodes you have started to include just the right amount of detail. Please come to the us again(California please)
What a beautiful presentation. You pay up 2000 euros for the menu alone and do all this work filming and editing (or hire someone to do it) and make us viewers almost experience it. I mean, smell, taste and touch cannot be administered through the internet just yet, but the aesthetic of the meal, the description, and also the music and part of the atmosphere can.
This looks incredible! Seems like ALOT of food though haha, mustve been quite full afterwards! each serving seems rather large compared to some of the other restaurants you've tested
Seems like ALOT of drinks too 😂
the food detail, wow
oh man it's HILARIOUS. This guy is just CLUELESS 😂😂😂😂😂
i really love these
Great video. I love this channel so fucking much.
Welcome Alexander to China and hope you enjoy your stay in China.
Getting tanked once again hahaha!
Hitting up Shanghai in Nov, have to decide if I have the time to add this in.
I hope one day you'll visit Hungary as well , like babel or stand.
Yeeeey he is back
Great video .
Amazing video
Благодарю за потрясающий выпуск!
Super top señor ! , I LOVE food too , 15 days ago stay in Le Calandre , Antica Osteria Cera and Local saludos
I love a happy chef!
🥹🥹🥹 gosh! This video makes me wanna visit this restaurant!
What this Channel has achieved in such a short time is nothing short of exceptional. The Production value and quality rivals the very best shows on TV. Toss in a wildly likable Host, that actually can articulate the dishes superbly, yet weave his personal opinion in seemlessly, and this is a surefire production that Network Execs clammor for. Netflix needs to pick this show up, so the wider viewing public can benefit!
The champagnes... The tasting menu followed by a myriad of petits fours! W O W!
Goated channel ❤
The best channel on RUclips.
So! I must ask, Alexander what are you thinking as a special event for the 1mil subs??
Never mind the food. I just wait to see the beautiful cutlery and dishes it's served on!
me too
